I need e-ink to protect my eyes.
For productivity I looked at the Asus line as well.
I missed a good deal just before holidays, here in Canada BestBuy sold Asus eee121 (slate) with 600$ factory refurbished....
That will allow me to use the same PDF reader on desktop and tablet and get rid of all the complication to transfer the content from e-reader to desktop. I needed time to go to the store and test my PDF reader there. The functionality was OK (Windows is not very good for tablets, not yet) but the screen was glaring and even if I adjusted the contrast and brightness it was still uncomfortable

However the tablets give me the same eye strain as desktops and I do not want to spend any more money for that.
